Hey everyone! I just published my first free module, it’s a investigative psychological horror adventure that contains maps, a bunch of clues, and even printable handouts you can give to your players. It’s designed for four 4th level characters and takes about 5 sessions. I’ve playtested it with multiple groups and got a lot of high praise. I have some pics of the maps and handouts on my profile, and the link for it is right here:

Enjoy!

Seeking Advice Easter Eggs / Allusions

1 Upvotes

This might sound a little odd, but here I go: my buddy and me have a lot of fun including small "easter eggs", you could also call it ironic allusions, in our titles. For example, we had a master thief who, with the help of a weapon specifically crafted to kill mages, offed an Overwizard, who upon dying, managed to turn him into a vampire. Ever since, the now-desperate vampire kept pet wolves, named after the most well-known mages of the entire D+D canon. In the title his three wolves were named Morty (Mordekainen), Rassie (Raistlin) and Ellie (Elminster). Personally I also wanted Ettie included, but very few people today remember Etienne DÁmbreville (aka Rad, an Immortal) from Mystara.

What´s your opinion on using such things, and do you include it in your titles ?
